COVID can cause new health problems even 3 years after infection, study finds: 'We don’t know what’s going to happen at 10 years'
“People are developing new-onset disease as the result of an infection that they had three years ago,” says Dr. Ziyad Al-Aly, a clinical epidemiologist at Washington University in St. Louis and lead author of the study. ‘It challenges the notion that these viruses are sort of self-contained or that after the acute first phase, they become inconsequential.’”

Perspective: I Thought I Was Protected but I Still Got Long Covid
“I was aware of Long COVID since I had persistent loss of taste and smell going back to my first infection, but I never really considered it to be Long COVID, as it did not have a major effect on my life. The third infection is really what tipped me into Long COVID. Since then, I've had intermittent chest pain, heart palpitations, various neurological issues (face numbness, buzzing in the feet), joint pain, anxiety, issues with my vision, fatigue, complete alcohol and caffeine intolerance. I alternate between good weeks and bad weeks,”
